DEVEX Conference / Seismic Conference

Taking place earlier in the month, the DEVEX Conference and Seismic Conference are industry-run events designed to deliver high quality focused training opportunities to all areas of the energy sector.

Mearns & Gill was thrilled to team up with the DEVEX Committee once again to deliver the 2 day conference at the Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre. Attended by over 600 delegates across the two days, the programme featured technical presentations from Operators and service companies as well as a Core display, Field Trip, Collaboration Lunch and Young Professionals event.

Devex 2017 showed that even in tough times the overall atmosphere of a conference can be upbeat and positive. Thanks to all contributors, sponsors and exhibitors, the Aberdeen Petroleum Community was offered a jam-packed two days full of learning and networking opportunities once again. I’m already looking forward to next year’s event!

The Conference continues to grow in popularity and with industry support from conference partners BP, Centrica, ConocoPhillips, Maersk Oil, Nexen, OGA, Premier Oil and Shell, as well as supporters TAQA, Rock Flow Dynamics and Chevron, DEVEX is truly a conference run by the industry, for the industry.

Taking place immediately after the DEVEX Conference, the inaugural Seismic Conference was hosted at Aker Solutions’ premises in Dyce and was a sell out with over 100 delegates attending presentations from high profile industry speakers on all aspects of the Seismic industry. The event proved to be incredibly popular, with plans to extend the conference for next year.

The recent Seismic 2017 one day conference held in Aberdeen can only be described as a resounding success. As a first time event to be oversubscribed with quality talks plus a 100% uptake of all available spaces shows that this sort of event has a place in Aberdeen for the foreseeable future.
